Arma 2 AO Port problems

Post by Zeddie Little »

So I bought multiple IP's specifically to avoid having using different ports
As you can imagine that's not how it went
Every time I launch up a AO server it always tells me it can't use port ####, even though I have different IP's assigned on each server
I've opened up incoming/outcoming ports in my firewall with the AOServer.exe and it still won't let me use the port
Anyone able to help?

Not sure if your on a VDS or dedicated, but have you tried restarting the entire server and then launching the servers. Should reset all the ports.

Oh right I have a VDS
If you mean by restarting through the control panel, No I have not yet to restart it
Might make a difference, lol

Worth a try. I run into the same thing on our server with ports.
Gets frustrating when you know your not using the ip and port in combination anywhere else.
Restarts usually reset everything and resolves it sometimes.

In my experience, OA servers always bind to the primary network adapter IP, regardless of what you put in the start parameters. You can avaoid this by using different ports that are sepperated by a larger gap, BI suggest at least 10.

Try to catch me in TeamSpeak Zeddie and we will set this up.

Yeah I just read up on the 10 gap port last night
Alright, though the only time I get to see you on Ts is on Sunday morning since I work the rest of the days
